Artist Dimitri Daniloff is a veritable photoshop wiz in the commercial advertising business; his carefully orchestrated visuals bring creepy and shocking advertising concepts to life. The first two eerie and racy images below where two women are having sex with two ginormous bugs, were designed to promote protection against the HIV virus. Other shocking visuals include two individuals tongue-kissing animals to "literally illustrate the effects that smoking can have on your breath."

Duck Products annually sponsors a competition that offers a college scholarship to the person who creates the most stylish prom formal wear made from duct tape. The number of uses to which duct tape can be put is a source of humor (many of these are collected in books by "The Duct Tape Guys").
Some people enjoy making novelty items out of duct tape or decorating objects with it. Increased interest in creating these novelty and fashion pieces (such as duct tape prom dresses and handbags) has given rise to designer duct tape handbags, wallets, belts and related items. -Wikipedia-

Was tells Billboard.com that the session, which took place last Wednesday in Los Angeles, was spurred by a conversation he had with Madadian about "whether there was something we could do just to send out a little message of solidarity, remembering the '60s, believing music can change things.
